Hello House, what happens if solar panels watts exceed the MPPT solar charge controller specified wat, where the input voltage and current are okay?

example

Panel wattage : 2700w and the solar system is a 24v while on the solar charge controller states for 24v the max PV array is 1650w.

Someone that can afford 2,700w panels shouldn't have any problem buying the right size of charge controller except the system is a gift

NewDea4:
What did I say

You're right. I will take back my words and edit the post

Valto:
lolz , 30months kini? if that battery ever get issues after 3months forget it. though it will not happen

I know say he dey whyne me.

I asked if he has StarPlus battery but he said no. And my budget could only carry either of the two. So I opted for Interlight

zeestone99:
U bought battery for 135k and you are happy. My advice is treat that ba3 like an egg, don't discharge 50%.

Anyway expect that china brands will be cheaper than Indian brands.

But Interlight brand is indian nah.

Seller gave me 30 months warranty

..

Puvo:
Omo I need a sure plug in uyo. I prefer buying these stuffs from physical stores incase if incasity

220ah battery is very heavy. The person that helped me to buy it complained die say he can't even lift it one centimeter.

I suggest you search jiji if you can buy the battery in uyo or pH cos if you want to waybill from Lagos, the driver/transport company fit call outrageous prices for you.

You can order inverter from Lagos Sha

Puvo:
Boss please where did you get them from

Arena at Oshodi.

The inverter cost 135k.

Battlefield2:
I took lemon juice,I took lime, I even bought a syrub "JAWALK SYRUB"
I guess those are the tips that helped broke the stone into particles that I can pee out because I'm quite sure the stone was bigger than that

Okay. Thank God you survived.

Me, immediately start feeling bloated tummy alone, na combo of Goko & Yoyo bitters straight

Battlefield2

Why you no simply dey drink lemon juice over time to dissolve them abi you didn't search solution for it online?

GuestJoe:
Please,can someone help me look into this quotation.

Panels: STC,Rubbitec or Flames
Battery: Tubular (Addo or Houston)

This is to be used by a shop that runs from 8am-8pm and the total calculated load is 3.4kva

Valto is right. The quote is over- inflated. The installer want to build house on your pocket.

I bought interlight 220ah tubular battery for 137k last month (I was given discount as I also bought smarten 2.5kva inverter there). Even on this thread, they are advertised max 155k .... I'm seeing 180k for Tubular battery on your list.. Except the extra 30k is for transport per battery if you're not in Lagos

BALLOSKI:
wetin spoil this environment? This is a filling station opposite a market or plaza. Red soil no be issue.

Na motor wey see banana island go still see sangotedo.

You don't see anything wrong with the environment? Red soil in that place is normal? Haven't you been to filling stations with neatly swept/vacuumed floors abi their management get 3 heads?

This is what I mean by we see "rough environment as normal" in Nigeria.

HeavenlyBang:
So far so good.

The car no fit the environment.... Abi na the environment no fit the car. Na Dubai, Singapore, J'Bourg e go fit. Fine car fine environment

But wetin man go do? E be like rough environment is "NORMAL" in Nigeria

Pls continue with the narrative.

Thanks

bassdow:
That's because not many people are using it.


Another thing is, you need something to cool the UPS, I added extra FANs inside the UPS and that's taken care of. Without those extra FANs inside the UPS, it would quickly overHeat

Thanks so much. I'm definitely getting another 220ah tubular battery.

About UPS, I tried it before but the wire got so hot in some instances (even though it was Okada battery o.. I can imagine how hot it'll be with tubular battery).

The heat issues and having to be using big wires was why I opted for 24v inverter.

The way this country dey go, prices just dey scatter... It's upsetting. Tubular battery I buy 135k last month fit don enter 150k now

AntiChristian:
The only way of life still stopping "2SLGBTQ+" is Islam.

Two Spirits, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, etc is more accepted with the freedom mentality that comes with Christianity and so called "Christian countries"!
!

You're funny.

You think LGBTQ wave is just ordinary human truancy?

Why did the force behind LGBTQ choose to aggressively attack Christian values if Christianity is of no use?

If the force behind LGBTQ decides to make use of Islam to project their agenda, you think they can't do it?

Boko Haram, aren't they moslems?

So don't say the forces cannot make use of any religion because the religion is too principled or too pure or they're using one religion or are because they're too lax or too indisciplined

There will always be deviants everywhere in any society.

Truth be told, the amount of federal roads in the country is too much for only the federal government to maintain.

Everywhere is federal road.

Federal government can't be everywhere.

They should just accept defeat and hand over some of the roads back to the state governments

sintolord:
Why not buy from Lagos & the company will waybill it to Benin, somewhere around new Benin or Agbado. Shipping is very cheap unlike jumia or konga

Waybill is cheap?

Once the park people or driver sight your load, they'll start calling outrageous amounts. Sometimes it's even cheaper to buy seat than waybill

Good pm chairmen.

A question has been bothering me.

Which is actually better between UPS (e.g bluegate UPS) and a hybrid inverter?

Typical UPS consists of: Automatic voltage regulator, battery charger and inverter,

Hybrid inverter consist of: Battery charger, inverter, Mppt charge controller,

But most people that use hybrid inverter with Mppt also are advised to use external Mppt which is additional cost again.

So... Say... If I buy a 3kva Bluegate UPS, open it and connect it to a tubular battery, would it be as efficient as an hybrid inverter viz idle power consumption?

I fear the UPS internal transformer would be quite big and consume more power from the battery than an hybrid inverter.

As I dey read everywhere day inverter dey misbehave, I never see where UPS dey misbehave o

In short, I will like to know the disadvantages of using UPS in place of inverter

Buchika:
My question is can I get a 50 watts solar panel and connect direct to those fans or should I use a charge controller?

If a charge controller is needed, what type or capacity is ideal?

Those fans are only used between 10 am to 5 pm

You will need one good battery.

I hope my crude set up answers your question

Don't mind the naked wire. I just put am to demonstrate to you

It's an 80w panel

yemi2plus:
So, it doesn't. But this will obstructe free movements of vehicle in the compound.

It won't obstruct anything. Is street light pole obstructing road?

Plant the pole by your window or door step or back yard. So far the sun shine along the place 9am-5pm, no problem

You will pass the wires from the solar panels into your house same way split AC unit pipe dey enter house

yemi2plus:
Good morning everyone,
I plan to set up a 3.5KVA/24V Inverter system without solar panels for now as the tenancy agreement doesn't allow solar panel installation on the roof, .

Does the tenancy agreement also forbid something like this?

If not, just get a higher pole to keep the panels out of little children's reach. I have seen pole holding 3 panels up to roof line.

So I don't think the tenancy agreement is a problem

potland:
I fear for this team oh. Kanu, ucheibe onumonu, plumptre should never near first team again. They are bunch of liabilities

Enter field and play yourself nau

samnaija:
First of all everyone here is telling you the truth , no miss understanding. .

Even the 4 tubular batteries is not recommended for Ac use, shortens the life span.
Bigger banks and a even bigger solar array or generation. Minimum 8 tubular batteries.

Thanks for the correction. Appreciate

Iinnov8:
Oweniwe, you will find one of these helpful as an economical option.

Thanks so much. God bless.

earthrealm:
, youdonminit.
All these load on 2 x 12v 200ah fla battery
max load you can put in 500w

I'm being misunderstood.

I'm building the system slowly from ground up.

Total set up at the end of the day is 3,000w panels, 2.5kva inverter, 4 (220v) batteries, Mppt charge controller

At the moment, only one tubular battery and inverter have been purchased.

None of the appliances intended to be used have been purchased too.

So for start, the system will just be used for charging phones, 4 rechargeable fans, and light in night time.

It is much later I hope to buy DC/inverter compliant freezer first , then 1hp inverter AC. But if the system will not be able to very the AC, will just stick with the fans.

So for start, two tubular batteries for one DC 200L freezer, 4 rechargeable fans, lighting and phone charging during day time 8.30-5pm or so daily, I don't think it's too much.

My friend currently uses 2.5kva inverter and two 220ah tubular batteries to power his double for inverter fridge, tv and fans. So I'm not asking for too much

isangjohnson:
Though the capacity of this item is not stated, it's not still advisable.
Go for 48v system if you intend to power AC and budget the minimum of 3m for it.

Faints.

Where I wan see 3m?

3,000w panel
4 units of 220ah tubular batteries
2.5kva inverter

That's all I'm buying o. It'll be gradually Sha. Any gadget the set up no go fit Carry well, na to park am for one corner

isangjohnson:
When you add the second 12v 220ah battery to the first one, please don't use it with your AC, even during the day


Again, it will not be good for you to add another 12v 220ah lead acid battery after six months.

What if it is inverter AC or those mini mobile AC, please? (Pix attached)

Is it okay to use?

If all goes well, within 2 months, I can get another tubular battery

dollarnaira:

Are you sure your load is 2000w?
What do you want to power?
Remember that souer should not be used to run some appliances as it is a msw.

1 hp AC, 250-500L Freezer, Bed side fridge, 4 fans, TV, Decoder, Lights... That's all

8am - 8pm daily

But due to situation on ground, no AC and Deep freezer usage until I get another 220ah battery

dollarnaira:
Get a 12v inverter if your total load will be less than 1000w. But how you take buy sth wey u no get full knowledge about?

I knew, but forgot at the point of purchase. Load should be about 2,000w. That's why I opted for 2.5kva inverter.

dollarnaira:
Lithium is not cheap.
24v lithium of 100A is roughly 320k.

Chai ... Lol... I go run ooo

Drgreatone

Maybe I'll buy a small 1,000w souer inverter and be using it with the tubular battery pending when fund is available for another tubular battery

Good pm house

I bought a 2.5kva smarten inverter and 220ah Interlight Tubular battery and shipped it across to my state.

I thought that was the end but it won't on o. Den say I have to buy another battery to add it to make it 24v before it will start and account don red like this.

What is the temporary solution pls? Can I pair the 220ah tubular battery with 50/100ah dry cell battery for mean time?
